The Disciple-making Podcast

It's been a long year, with many challenges along the way - but we're still here and we're still serving Jesus! Thank you for joining me on this journey into Disciple-making. This is our final episode for Season 1 as the podcast will be taking a break over the rest of December and Jan and will be back with Season 2 in February! Until then, be blessed and make disciples!

Today Shane and I discuss the significance of multiplication in disciple-making. How do we as individuals take ownership of Jesus' command to make disciples, what are some of the barriers that prevent us from taking this step and how can we overcome those. Join our conversation for all this and more!

Sometimes in disciple-making, it's easy to get stuck in a routine. You meet, you chat, you catch up... But how do you know if you're making any real progress toward cultivating maturity? This week Shane and I get super practical about how to make sure our disciple-making is going somewhere - enjoy!

In this episode Shane and I get real about one of the significant goalposts and challenges in being a disciple-maker - discipling to release. How do you make sure that your discipling of someone doesn't create a dependency on you as the disciple-maker? What can you do to help your disciple become reliant on Jesus more than you? Join us this week as we explore this together!

In this episode, I talk to John about his observations about the significance of relationships in his life of ministry. We start in our relationship with God and how through that, God shapes and changes us for His purposes, before digging into the significance of relationships themselves and making sure to get really practical as we do!

This week we explore our final foundational priority in the life of Jesus - that Jesus lived out of relationship with His Father and did ministry through relationships with others! 

This week we segue away from our focus on Foundations for Disciple-making to address the struggle of navigating difficult relational waters. This episode comes out of an experience through which our local church is moving. In this episode, I use chapter 3 of Paul's letter to the Colossians to give a small pastoral reflection on how we can do this well as disciples of Jesus

This week I chat to Sheldon, the senior Pastor from The Bay church in Capricorn. Sheldon has been pioneering worship movements for decades and we explore together growing and developing worship in our lives and those that we're discipling, the true nature of worship and what it looks like to live that out in our daily lives!

This week we explore the 5th foundation: Exalting the Father! We look at Jesus again and discover what Jesus had to say about worship, how He modelled worship for us and what that might mean for us today!

In an extension of last week's discussion, this week I explore 6 tips or practices that I use to better enjoy my time with God in His word! From translations to helpful interpretation questions, this week I do my best to help you maximize your time in God's Word!
